From Naples to Agbogbloshie, from imaginary futures to toxic legacies, this Element explores the Wasteocene and how to dismantle it.

Recenzje

'Armiero's book contributes to the understanding of the processes, protagonists, economic and social transformations as well as the exploitative forces behind Wasteocene logic … The author touches upon a highly relevant and urgent issue that too often remains overlooked, and for that reason the reviewer looks forward to the potential debate and the further research that this book may provoke.'
